We traveled to Sonoma County with Ilja and Xavi made a new friend. He called him Yiya and cried for his help when his parents wouldn't give in to his demands "Yiya, Help ME!". And watched a movie w/ him.
He dressed up for Julia's wedding only to crawl around the floor with a three year old he met there.
There were times we had to hold him still - like during the ceremony. So when he loudly asked for chocolate, we gave in (we're always trying to avoid being "those parents" in public) and he said thank you and when there was no response yelled WELCOME! Don't think the bride noticed. At least I hope she didn't.
We walked through Armstrong Redwood Forest and thought it would be safe because there was a fence to keep visitors on the path.
He must take after his pampa because the fence couldn't keep him on the path.
So he had to go back in the stroller.
It was great to see so many friends last weekend! We're looking forward to a trip from the Anello g-parents later this month and another ultrasound next week - we'll find out the gender of the baby so stay tuned!
The top one is her profile in the type of ultrasound picture I'm used to seeing. The one below is 3D...the right hand side of the picture is her face with her fist by her cheek. This was taken while she was burying her face in the placenta like it was a pillow (we saw that in 3D!) - she seemed to be trying to get comfortable and go to sleep. Sure enough after this she turned her back to the technician and couldn't be woken up to turn back around. The technician was trying to get pictures of her heart from the top down - so there would be no shadow from the ribcage or spine. Oh well, they had to go with what they had.
